Love the Wild Swan -- Jeffers

I'm not really sure what the meaning behind this poem is. It could be that he hates himself for what he did to Una; hates the darkness of humans. The only thing that one should love about humans is their ability to love nature. Love the senses because they can observe and worship the sublime.
